MMJ @ Champlain Valley Lawn 8/20- Roll Call!

[johnnYYac]

My +1 might have to bail on the show. The woman who was going to cover her shift has been out sick for most of the week, and I've got a feeling she won't be showing up tomorrow either.  >:(

I'll be there come hell or high water though! ;)

Is there a place confirmed for the pre show get together?

I got the impression we were talking pre-show tailgate and post-show bar (Lincoln Inn or something).

[8bobbyb]

Yes...we will meet up at the handy inn and/or the lot.  We will take our truck over to the lot for anyone who needs a ride....we have a gray 4runner with a mmj owl sticker and jersey plates......yahoooooooooey.

Just back from the grace potter show and we are sure in for a treat tomorrow nite!  They were fantastic!! (it's me trish on bobs acct)

GPN & MMJ = Best Rock Bands in America more people should see.

This a tremendous double bill!  Don't linger in the parking lot! I wish they would tour together.

[ericm]

Woohoo!!  

It's been almost four months since my last Live Jacket fix. Today's the day. ;D ;D

Next stop = S. Burlington, VT. - Essex Jct VT.

See you there and safe travels everyone.

So I haven't seen mmj since the MSG show a while back. It's been far, FAR too long. A slight hitch in my pre-show plans has come up, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to catch you all for a pre-show tailgate. BUT I will be there when gates open so I'm sure I'll see some of you then (and during the show and post). I'll have my bright green bob's bait concert-going shirt on. As ericm said, safe travels everyone, see you there!

[ynwa]

suuuuper duuuuper excited about this!  looking foward to an intro to grace potter & then my most favorite, and greatest band in THE whole wide world... MMJ  :D

she's hot! i think i have a bigger crush on her now than i have on YY.
you and bob have a great trip!!!

[Bigsky]

I am going to be in pain tonight...I will be in VT at my parent's place, but I can't go to the show. So close, but yet so far away...It's like being in a candy store and having your tongue cut off. :'(

Anyways...as JJ would say...

Thats a total bummer bigsky.  I hurt for you, but you'll be w/ us in spirit!
 
Joey, will look for you & your bright green shirt @ the gates.

Everyone is welcome to meet up @ Handy Suites.  Sis is driving to venue & we have room if ppl need a lift.  PM me & i'll give u my cell so we can coordinate.

Umm, Canadian MMJ fans, i hear there's a whole bunch of you staying here as well.  Give us a shout!

See y'all soon!!!!

ericm says "wish you were here."

saw joey rogo.  he got a great birthday gift with this show.

got Kyle a poster (and one for me, and one for tbd810 and 8bobbyb, and ericm). I'll try to post a picture.  Kyle, maybe you could post the one I sent you.

I'm being rude to my guests, so more later.

HONEST MAN!!!!  Holy fuck!  It was mindblowing!

And, not just because I've been chasing live Steam Engine for two years, it was THE BEST STEAM ENGINE known to human ears.  I stand by this statement and pray for a recording to emerge so you will all know what I know.

OK, really, I'm done.  G'night.

[BH]

Kick ass JY!   Congrats to you on Steam! [smiley=beer.gif]  I will go to bed with smiles tonight!  

HONEST FUCKING MAN!!!!!?/???????!?1?1?1?1?1?!?1??ffffuuhhhhhhh1/1//1/1/1/1/1/1

[jmk]

Holy shit. That setlist is RIDICULOUS.

[johnnYYac]

And, no lie, an extended Good Intentions into Lay Low jam.  You heard me right.  At least, that's what I'm calling it.  "Okay, cool." was played twice during a crazy jam that bled into Lay Low.

Not a bad crowd.  We were 2nd or 3rd from the rail.  Trish (tbd810) let me switch with her to get closer to the Omnichord during Touch Me 2,  and there I remained for an epic Steam Engine.  

Thanks, Liz and Laura, for the ride to the show and good company.  Bob, Trish, and Eric for the sandwich, beer, and poster tube rental.  These are GOOD people!  

But seriously, I gotta go to bed.  Got another show tomorrow night and 5-6 hours of driving to get me there.

[scosby2]

Sounds like another epic show in the books...John, I prayed last night before I went to bed that they would play steam engine. (dead serious). I'm glad my prayer was answered. These setlists are gettting better by the day. It's times like these I wish I was from the north.

[mahg33ta]

JY - SO SO happy to got some variation in your setlists after your April road-trip.   That was such the exception.

Honest Man -are you kidding me!? Love that they are busting out randoms - can't wait for Holyoke.

Here's the poster- a real favorite:  (If you end up with an extra I know someone else who already wants one)

[mahg33ta]

also to hear more circuital reviews - as seeing it live Thurs I'm definitely a fan.   Now I WANTED to like it so bad, as I'm hoping with all might that the next album is up my alley.    But, it sure has the feel of a keeper.

[touchingmept2]

Sounds like, once again, they are guilty of tearing it the eff up!!!

[iLikeBeer]

Damn them.  I really hate it when they do this!   ;D   ;)   8-)

Seriously.  Sounds like a good time was had in VT!  What a setlist!  Less than a week until Pittsburgh and I can't f'ing wait!!!  

I thought about everyone in VT as my wife and I jammed to MMJ last night and thought about how a week from now we would be in their presence!  8-)  It's going to be a loooong week!  :D

[Honest Man]

I have been dying to hear Honest Man for years now! I hope they break it out again in Philly. Their setlists right now have been absolutely killer!I hope someone taped this show.
